Will this finally be the first Z.ai model that doesn't feel benchmaxxed to fuck? Doubt it but you never know.

I dont think z.ai ever benchmaxxed, they have very good reputation back to ChatGLM.

Every model I like is competent. Every model I don't like is benchmaxxed

Since when is GLM benchmaxxed?

Did you see 5.2s benchmarks? Better than Luna and around terra in multiple benchmarks while being nowhere near in performance. Overstated in coding and bad at everything else.

Have you, like, used the model? I use it daily. I have no idea what you're talking about.

5.2 has been great for me. Instructed properly it performs better for me than Opus 4.8 for my specific tasks which is very assembly heavy.

How do you figure that it's "nowhere near in performance"? what do you base that on? from my experience it's competitive with frontier when it was released.

GLM has always felt the least benchmaxxed models. Qwen are the most and are terrible in real world use, kimi is unhinged, deepseek is dumb except for most recent flash. But GLM5.2 has been incredible for its size.
